The Agriculture × 2012 join
LobbyVault stores FEC employer/industry strings separately from election cycles. Crossing them for Agriculture and 2012 yields $476,013. That is 411 itemized lines and 135 unique donors. The figure is not a committee’s reported disbursement. FEC.gov remains the underlying source.
Self-reported industry word, not a farm census can collide with similar form text. This join uses the exact grouping AGRICULTURE. Related employer words, abbreviations, and occupation titles are not added. The 135 donor identities are contributor keys, not a headcount of a workforce.
Dropping either filter changes the story. Drop the year and you see $5,317,336. Drop the string and you see the entire 2012 cycle. This page holds both filters at once.
Lifetime Agriculture money versus 2012
A lifetime figure of $5,317,336 can swallow a single cycle if the join is skipped. 2012 is $476,013, about 9.0%. The leftover $4,841,323 belongs on other cycle pages for the same string, not in this cell.
$5,317,336 is still only this exact grouping. It is not every related company name and not a sector total. 9.0% describes 2012 inside Agriculture, nothing else. $5,317,336 is the running sum for exact string AGRICULTURE. 2012 contributes $476,013 (9.0%); the complement is $4,841,323 (91.0%). Changing one character in the employer field would move money to another grouping and change both the numerator and the denominator.
